Dana Q1 Adjusted EBITDA Rises to $171 Million; Full-Year Guidance Maintained

Positive Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

Dana reported first-quarter 2026 sales of $1.87 billion, up from $1.78 billion a year earlier, and adjusted EBITDA of $171 million, up from $93 million, with the margin rising to 9.2% from 5.2%. The company maintained its full-year 2026 guidance and said it won a new Stellantis program, but operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow were both negative and worse than a year earlier.

Key points

  • Q1 2026 sales of $1.87 billion vs. $1.78 billion in Q1 2025, driven by customer recoveries and currency translation
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $171 million, a 9.2% margin, vs. $93 million and 5.2% in Q1 2025; cost savings were the primary driver
  • Operating cash flow was a use of $156 million and adjusted free cash flow a use of $195 million, vs. uses of $37 million and $101 million a year earlier
  • Full-year 2026 guidance: sales $7.30 to $7.70 billion, adjusted EBITDA $750 to $850 million, diluted adjusted EPS $2.00 to $3.00, adjusted free cash flow $250 to $350 million
